"You sure came late," Susie said to the mysterious warrior. "But the good thing is, you have arrived much earlier than I expected."
"How can I help you, Lady Susie?" The mysterious warrior asked.
"I have a mission for you," Susie said as she reached to pick up two pictures. "Do you know these two Star Warriors?" She asked as she handed him two pictures, one of Kirby, and one of Meta Knight.
"Just one," The mysterious warrior replied as he pointed at Meta Knight.
"Well, that doesn't matter," Susie said. "Your mission is to defeat these two warriors. They are the two warriors that will stop President Haltmann's plan to take over the galaxy. Don't worry. Even though he takes over the galaxy, you'll be able to live in peace. You just have to defeat these two, and we will be able to continue our plan to take over the world without having to worry about the Star Warriors bothering us."
"She's right." Haltmann stepped in.
"Mr. President," The mysterious warrior greeted as he bowed.
"You are our hope to take over the galaxy," Haltmann said. "I know you'll do a great job. If you succeed, you'll get paid a lot. If you fail, you'll not get the money you need. Of course, you won't fail this, not to give you too much pressure."
"I won't let you down, Mr. President," The mysterious warrior said.
"Don't worry, you'll have more than one chance," Susie said. "Those two Star Warriors are becoming stronger ever time, so might as well, you get prepared too."
"Yes, Lady Susie," The mysterious warrior replied.

It was another peaceful day in Cappy Town. Kirby happily bit and chewed on the watermelon that Tiff and Tuff brought him. The sweetness, coolness, and juiciness of watermelon danced around and refreshed inside of his mouth.
"Try to have enough watermelon, kid!" Tokkori nagged. "At this rate, you'll become a watermelon by eating that much watermelon!"
Kirby ignored him happily. He was too joyful to take any nagging. No one can come in between him and watermelon. Tokkori slapped his own forehead with his wings. "That kid never listens to me!"
"Poyo, poyo!" Kirby said as he swallowed the mouthful of watermelon.
As Tokkori sighed by the helpless sight, someone knocked on the door. "Coming!" Tokkori said as he flew to the door.
When he opened it, Meta Knight was standing right there. "Hello," He greeted.
"Hey, it's Meta Knight!" Tokkori said. Kirby turned to the direction.
"I came here to pick up Kirby," Meta Knight said. "We have a training today."
"All right!" He turned to Kirby. "Hey Kirby! Stop gobbling up that watermelon and get to training with Meta Knight!"
"Poyo!" Kirby said excitedly. He swallowed up the rest of the watermelon, licked off the seeds around his mouth, and went out to greet Meta Knight. "Poyo."
"All right, good luck!" Tokkori said as he closed the door.
"Hello, Kirby," Meta Knight greeted gently.
"Poyo," Kirby greeted back modestly.
"Training was just an excuse." Meta Knight caressed his head. "I just wanted to take a walk with you."
"Poyo~" Kirby giggled.
"Why don't we go somewhere peaceful?" Meta Knight offered. "I also packed some sandwiches so that we can have a little picnic." He showed his picnic basket.
"Poyo!" Kirby said excitedly.
They both walked up the hill to take a nice, fresh air.
"Poyo! Poyo! Poyo!" Kirby skipped up the hill as he held Meta Knight's hand.
Meta Knight chuckled. Kirby's happiness was his happiness. Meta Knight found a nice shade under the large tree on top of the hill. "Why don't we have a picnic over there, Kirby?"
"Poyo!" Kirby agreed excitedly.
Meta Knight and Kirby sat under the tree. The breeze felt cooler there. Meta Knight took a piece of sandwich and gave it Kirby. He would say "Ah," but he felt embarrassed saying that. He just handed in front of Kirby and blushed.
"Ah," Kirby took a bite from a sandwich that Meta Knight gave him. He chewed, savored, and swallowed. "Poyo, poyo!" Kirby really liked the taste of the sandwich.
Good thing that I learned how to make sandwiches from Tiff, Meta Knight thought as he saw Kirby enjoying his sandwich. Meta Knight reached to eat one, then all of a sudden, a strong wind and loud thunder came to bother them.
What was all this chaos in a clear sky?!
The mysterious warrior stepped towards Kirby and Meta Knight and greeted them by pointing at them with his sword. "Greetings."
"You!" Meta Knight said as he stood up.
"Yes, I'm sure you know me, we have met once before," the mysterious warrior said. "But I shall introduce myself. My name, Galacta Knight."
"What are you doing here?" Meta Knight asked, angrily but calmly.
"To defeat the star warriors," Galacta Knight replied as he pointed at both Kirby and Meta Knight with his sword.
"Well then," Meta Knight said as he drew his Galaxia. "I accept your challenge."
"Prepare yourself," Galacta Knight said. There was a pause for a moment between Galacta Knight and Meta Knight. Then Galacta Knight quickly glided towards Kirby and attempted to slash him, but Meta Knight quickly blocked it with Galaxia.
"I won't let you hurt Kirby even if it costs my life," Meta Knight said as he took his position after blocking the attack.
"That's Kirby?" Galacta Knight asked as he looked at Kirby. Then he let out a slight laugh to provoke. "He's nothing but a baby punk. Looks like useful for nothing."
That made Meta Knight's eyes turn red. He thrusted the air towards Galacta Knight and attempted to strike him with full force. The impact made an extremely loud sound. "You do not insult Kirby! I will not tolerate that!"
"This ought to be interesting," Galacta Knight chuckled evilly. "Prepare to be the actual stars, you filthy star warriors."
Galacta Knight swung his sword vigorously and Meta Knight countered all of them.
"You are one strong warrior aren't you?" Galacta Knight said as he violently swung his sword.
"You never changed either," Meta Knight said as he blocked and slashed.
(Flashback)
About 40,000 years ago, Galacta Knight and Meta Knight had one vs one battle. They had one furious battle as much as how they loathed each other.
The story all begins 100 years before the start of the war between Star Warriors and Galaxy soldiers against eNeMeE. Galacta Knight was extremely jealous since Meta Knight possessed Galaxia that he wanted it for about 10,000 years, and he was getting so much attention more than he did although they have done the same amount.
Meta Knight knew the history of Galacta Knight. Galacta Knight betrayed the Star Warrior force and Galaxy Soldiers and join the dark side due to more benefits and higher wage, in addition to that, he had cruel jealousy towards Meta Knight that he did not want to be part of the forces of Star Warrior and Galaxy Soldier. He even attempted to kill Sir Arthur, the leader of forces of Star Warrior and Galaxy Soldier for the price offered by Nightmare Enterprises.
After every single Star Warriors and Galaxy Soldiers were defeated by Nightmare Enterprises and their monsters, Meta Knight traveled all alone seeking for hope of any kind. That went on for about 10,000 years or so, until he encountered Galacta Knight, who wanted duel with him since he wanted to defeat Meta Knight so badly.
After hours of furious fight, Galaxia used full power on Galacta Knight that he lost his conscious and left a large crack on his mask. After defeating him, Meta Knight abandoned Galacta somewhere extremely far away from Dreamland and Nightmare Fortress. He didn't want to kill Galacta Knight since he had some Galaxy Soldier blood flowing through his body, so there was some hope.
(End of flashback)
"But I won't lose this time! I've improved!" Galacta Knight said as he struck him with full force and created much impact.
"Ugh!" Meta Knight grunted as the force pushed him down, leaving a huge injury around his eyes. He held the injury so tight to relieve the pain.
"Poyo!" Kirby ran to Meta Knight.
"I... am fine..." Meta Knight said, wincing in pain.
"I'm much stronger than before, show-off," Galacta Knight said.
"Kirby... take this..." Meta Knight said weakly as he handed the mini sword to Kirby. He transformed into sword Kirby and took the Galaxia. However, Galaxia was fast enough to counter and attack. The force of his sword also pushed him away that he bumped hard on the tree, causing him to faint.
"Hm!" Galacta Knight scoffed. He slowly walked towards Meta Knight finish him. "So long... Sir Meta Knight... may you rest in peace!" He raised his sword up high and struck him... no, his sword.
They both grunted as each of their power pushed against each other. As they both struggled, Galacta Knight lost his balance. Then, Meta Knight kicked him away, reached his pocket, took out a knife, and and threw it into Galacta Knight's arm.
"Ungh!" Galacta Knight grunted as the knife was buried into his arm. As he took it out, Meta Knight struck him with Galaxia. "Gah!" The force pushed him away and made a crack on the mask.
"Looks like... your mask is... made with... harder element," Meta Knight said, still holding his eye. However, his pain started to gradually lessen.
The mask's vibration by the force made his face sore. "Darn... I prepared for more..." Galacta Knight's voice was full of resentment.
"I don't want to play dirty," Meta Knight said. "Let's heal ourselves and duel again..."
"Fine," Galacta Knight said, holding his aching face. He flew away using its wings and flew off far... to Dedede's castle.
"Looks like Haltmann got his hands on Galacta Knight," Meta Knight said. Then he went to Kirby, picked him up, and carried him to the castle.

"Looks like you won't be able to recover for like two weeks or so," Susie said as she examined his injury.
"The power of Galaxia..." Galacta Knight said. "Only if I had that in my hands!"
"However, Galaxia will reject you since you decided to betray the forces of Star Warriors and Galaxy Soldiers," Susie said. "Also, the injuries given by Galaxia, there's no way to heal them fast. Since you still have some blood of Galaxy Soldier running through your body, you were able to withstand the major injuries. You can't fight until you have completely recovered. I won't let you."
"Yes, lady Susie," Galacta Knight replied.
"Our medical team will do the best we can to treat you," Susie said. "Don't you worry. You'll get your chance to beat the Star Warriors."
"Thanks, lady Susie," Galacta Knight replied.

Thankfully, there was no major injuries on Kirby. He had Kirby lie down sideways and put a soft, cold ice pack on the injured part of his head and back. Meta Knight took off his mask to treat himself. There was a deep scratch around his eyes. He grabbed the disinfectant, and slightly tapped it on his wound. Meta Knight winced as the disinfectant stung his wound. He just couldn't do if fast by himself, but Sword and Blade Knights were not present since he told them to go spend time with Tiff and Tuff while he was 'training' with Kirby. "Oeui..." Meta Knight wince a little louder as he accidentally gave pressure on one place of the wound.
"Poyo?" Kirby woke up by Meta Knight's wincing sound.
"Ah... sorry, Kirby," Meta Knight said.
"Poyo, poyo," Kirby said as he took the bottle of disinfectant and the cotton swab.
"But Kirby, this isn't easy," Meta Knight said. By now, he didn't care if Kirby knew how he looked like under his mask. In fact, he shouldn't even hide his real face anymore since now there is something going on there now.
"Poyo, poyo!" Kirby insisted. He watched Tiff treat many other cappies a lot of times so he knew how to treat that kind of wound. He gently tapped the cotton absorbed with disinfectant on his wound. It did sting a little, but it was a little better that Kirby was treating him than Meta Knight treating himself.
"Ouch, ouch," Meta Knight winced in sudden sting.
"Poyo, poyo," Kirby apologized.
"It's fine. It's natural," Meta Knight said.
After he was done with disinfectant, Meta Knight handed him a bottle of ointment. Kirby took the ointment little by little and gently rubbed it on Meta Knight's wound. This ointment was especially used for Star Warriors and Galaxy Soldiers to heal their wounds so it felt really good on his wound. After he was done with ointment, he wrapped his wound with a bandage. It was not completely perfect, but it was bearable. Meta Knight put his mask on. "Thank you, Kirby," Meta Knight thanked him as his mask was secure.
"Poyo," Kirby replied.
"We will be healed in no time Kirby," Meta Knight said. "I'm sorry this happened."
"Poyo," Kirby replied.
"We should train when we heal," Meta Knight said. "He won't heal that fast either. I have all the best medicines."
A/N: Hey! There were some error with the storyline :P, but I fixed it so you'll not be confused. Enjoy!
